Pinterest videos on YouTube: what goes
Shorts or regular videos
Vertical videos up to 3 minutes post as Shorts. Wider or longer videos post as regular YouTube videos.
Your description becomes the title
The first line of your pin's description becomes the YouTube title, up to 100 characters, and the full text goes in the description. Pins with no description use their title.
Add your link to the description
Use Add custom text after the caption to put your site or shop link in every YouTube description. The pin's own link isn't copied.
Older video pins too
Turn on existing posts to send video pins you've already made, on paid plans and the free trial.
Pinterest to YouTube questions
Can you post Pinterest videos on YouTube?
Yes, your own. PostOnce posts each new video pin from the Pinterest account you connect to your YouTube channel, through YouTube's official posting API.
Are Pinterest videos copyright free?
No. Pinning a video doesn't change who owns it, so only post videos you made or have the rights to.
Will my pins post as Shorts or regular videos?
Vertical videos up to 3 minutes post as Shorts. Everything else posts as a regular video.
Can I post my older video pins?
Yes. Turn on existing posts, on paid plans and the free trial.
What happens to image pins?
They stay on Pinterest, because YouTube takes video only.
